Determining system button captions

The .NET Framework does not expose the strings used as captions for buttons
in message boxes and other windows.  Some of these strings are located as
Win32 resources in "user32.dll".  The 'SystemStrings' class shown below
loads the strings from this library and makes them available through shared
properties:
